Cool LS1 interface to 79 el camino water temp gauge
Is there a temp sender device I can use to interface my exisiting 79 El camino water temp gauge to my LS1? Exisiting 350 sender has 1 In threads and I/F to LS1 is 12M.
TX

On my swaps I just turned the el camino sender down in a lathe and re-threaded it 12mm. You can even do it in a hand drill with a file....although a drill press is easier.
